raise flop, bet turn, bet river
its not a contest to see if you can 'trick' your opponent its how to win the most money

also, if you bet the turn, he can't put you on a set. =)

You should be thinking, "how am i goin to get the river shove to be a potsized bet" on everyhand where you want value, espeically when you have the nuts.
So if you bet say 20$ on the turn, it leaves him with 69$
20+20+11+11 = 62$
So, that's a pretty acceptable bet since you leave the river bet close to pot.
If you can manage all pot sizes to be like that, you're going to get paid more.
Genginho: lose today 100 dollar only because of fishs they called and had luck on river
